Knee Replacement Surgery Video

If you’re interested in the process involved in knee replacement surgery, here’s a video from the surgeon’s point of view. Orthopedic surgery can be similar to carpentry, but with much cleaner tools. As is typical with this type of surgery, there’s plenty of blood and bone chips involved. The video is graphic. You’ve been warned.

An important note regarding the TMJ all Physical Therapists need to be aware of:

Many dentists & physicians are in need of referring their patients with persistent headaches, earaches, and facial pains related to the TMJ to other health care professionals; however they are unaware that some PTs can effectively evaluate and treat the TMJ.

There are great opportunities for PTs to assist their local dentists and help many individuals who suffer from persistent and disabling TMJ conditions. Management includes education on condition, highly effective home exercise programs and gentle mobilizations.
